1. “It’s the Values, Stupid”
Bill Clinton famously based his successful 1992 presidential campaign on the motto, “it’s the economy, stupid.” By that he meant, all voters care about is their own economic interest. Dennis has long disagreed. He has a different formulation. He explains that while economic issues are of critical importance, the paramount issue is ultimately values.

2. A Conversation with the Chief Rabbi of Great Britain
Dennis has a fascinating conversation with the erudite Chief Rabbi of Great Britain, Jonathan Sacks. They cover a full range of ultimate issues topics.

Dennis delves deep into Chapter 14 of the Book of Exodus. He discusses the Jews exodus from Egypt, the nature of revenge and the preoccupation with religious observance in this wide ranging talk. As always when Dennis “talks Torah,” the Bible’s themes resonant powerfully in our contemporary world.

Dennis evaluates present day America from the perspective of the mid-twentieth century. Is this the country our grandparents thought they were leaving their grandchildren? Would be they be happy or unhappy with what we have wrought?

A key component of the Biblical world view is that there are clearly defined distinctions that must be upheld — life from death, animal from man, men from women. Without these distinctions we risk chaos.
